No more than average. Avoid booking the single room which is extremely small, very difficult to open my suitcase. Airless hallway always smells bad and very narrow to move. Breakfast is just OK, that front lady there is very nice I liked her. Finally I was declined by the restaurant as I didn't book, so I walked to Bailey's hotel to have my dinner which was awesome there. I would not recommend this hotel to be honest.

We were initially put in a room that looked nothing like the one we booked. We were moved after requesting an alternative, but when we walked in it hadn’t been cleaned - there were crumbs on the seat and dresser, skid marks in the toilet, towels all over the floor, and the bedding was dirty. This was dealt with promptly and we were given complimentary breakfasts as an apology, however we were understandably somewhat disgruntled and expected a better standard when staying at a Radisson. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was good but the rooms are outdated and given the experience we won’t be rushing back.

This hotel doesn't give a good feeling. I don't know if it's because it's in London, but the room is very small. In addition, this hotel should be a former residential building, with winding internal passages. The elevator feels crowded when there are more than two people. The most annoying thing is that the sanitation is very perfunctory. Of course, the price is relatively low. In addition, it's not far from Harrods, so it's very convenient to go out and buy some small things. What surprised me most was that I accidentally found a small Shanghai restaurant 800 meters away from the hotel, which cooked delicious food

The room is relatively clean! The mattress is very soft and bouncy! It's just that the room is too small, and the money spent is only 1,900 yuan less per room. The location is good. You can walk to the subway station in 5 minutes. There are many restaurants next to the subway station, including a good Lebanese restaurant. Shopping is also very convenient, there is a supermarket next to the subway. It's also quite close to Imperial College, just a 10-minute walk away.

Cleanliness, service, location is also good. When you get on the subway, just cross the road and turn a corner. The room facilities are very old, although trying to keep it clean. It would be nice if it was renovated. Attached are photos of the newly renovated lobby.

The corridor has a strong smell, and the elevator to the room is very small, and it is very troublesome to get in. The room area is very small, there is no place to put the suitcase when it is opened.

The hotel is located in the first district, the location is very good, the travel is very convenient, and the staff are very friendly. But other than that, not much good. Space is too cramped, including aisles and rooms. The width of the corridor is narrow, there are many fire doors, and the dark tone makes it uncomfortable to walk through the long and winding corridor; I booked a superior single room because I was traveling alone. The size of the room is still too small. When I live in a hotel, I pack things neatly. If I get used to spreading everything out, the experience will be even worse. Overall, no special recommendation. But the location is really good, it is very convenient and safe to travel and live.
